Bab 71: Fast settlement

As expected, the monster troll is too strong for Oldman Barn. Before his blow hit the monster, its sharp claws rushed towards his face.

As soon as he was about to be hit in the face, Oldman Barn suddenly felt a force pull at him from behind. "!!" Barn was shocked at those moments. Surprisingly he had no strength to resist the force that pulled at him. But, as a result, he was saved from the monster's attack. The monster's claws did not reach him. Only the wind was hit.

"J-Jem!?" Oldman Barn said in shock as he looked his back and found out that it was the young man who had pulled him. Barn didn't know that Jem didn't follow his instructions to leave the area and take his granddaughter. Jem just stayed in his position until he thought he needed to intervene.

The troll was also confused for a moment when its attack did not hit. But, it rushed again without hesitation. Again, it raised its hands and quickly advanced.
